FFS, CA is pathetic, yet another case of CA jumping at shadows because they think England may be offended. The programmimg, location, format and make up of the Chairman's XI lends itself to piss taking from an amateur ground announcer.

I hope the Aussie Test team doesnt go back into their shell following the sooking of the last week from England and the "nice" people. I think England have played it up a bit, much like the curry munchers 4 years ago. Channel 9 dont broadcast what is said there is no problem, I hope they paid Clarke's fine, nice little bit of free publicity for them.

Yeh, I had a similar take on that one. Maybe he went a bit too far, but the circumstances were cherry ripe for a bit of piss taking.
I'm gonna sit back, crack the top off a Pale Ale, and watch the Double Blues prevail

Had nothing to do with the poms, they didn't know about it until after the event
